  1. Man, I miss this game. I used to play it all the time back in the day. I'm looking forward to Blizzards next installment of a game like Diablo (it'll probably be Diablo III). I'm looking forward to Starcraft II even more, but you know they'll continue the RPG genre. They may have to wait a while though so that it doesn't compete with World of Warcraft.
  2. If you use torrents this can happen (it did with me anyway). It also would happen occasionally when I allowed firefox to have too many connections going at once. It only seemed to affect the wifi connection as well (my roommate was connected with an ethernet cable and he could still connect to the router). If that's not it, make sure it's not overheating, and possibly contact the company that makes it. It could quite possibly be a common issue with an easy fix.
  3. I think that if you are still in love with your ex you should break up with your current boyfriend. Not just for your sake, but for the sake of your current boyfriend. It's not fair to treat him as a sort of secondary "if it works out with him I'll keep him, but I love this other guy." In my opinion you should either decide that you will cut off any sort of romantic feelings between you and your ex immediately, or tell your current boyfriend that you need some time to decide. Don't lead him on if you're not sure what you want.Please take my advice as simply another opinion though, other people might have advice that works better for you. I gave my advice based on the perspective of how it affects your current boyfriend, rather than you or your ex.
  4. I really liked what I've read of the series (most of it, but I forgot most of it as well). I think at some point I'm going to have to reread the entire series, otherwise I'll be entirely lost if I try to pick up where I left off. I do remember I was annoyed by it because at one point one of the main characters almost became a different sort of person, and I lost any feeling of empathy with him.
  5. Well, not exactly in line with the type of games you're talking about but I believe there is a fairly large group of people who play WoW on linux, there just isn't really much support for it.
  6. Well, considering the list, I think I'll just say my favorite MMORPG. WoW would have to win that one, I liked Guild Wars but I just couldn't stand the invisible walls and the lack of jumping. For some reason I feel restricted in games that don't have a jump button (at least, games that are designed like WoW or Guild Wars).
  7. I like the Harry Potter books, and I've re-read a number of them (not quite to the degree of some of you, 2-4 times is enough for me), but I don't think they're the best written books in the world. J.K. Rowling has created a very intriguing world, and her writing is easy and relaxing to read, but I don't think it's on the same level as other Fantasy writers.
  8. Hillary received much more media coverage because she was a much more viable mainstream candidate. Ron Paul might be popular with some groups of people, but even they will admit that most of his ideas definitely do not fit into mainstream public views. I'm not arguing for one over the over (to tell you the truth I don't like either of them all that much), but Hillary Clinton had a broader appeal to the US populace. Ron Paul has a very vocal base, but Hillary Clinton had the backing of a much larger group of people, as well as the Clinton name brand left over from her husband's presidency. I think that Ron Paul probably could have used more media coverage, and should have received it, but from the media's point of view they could address a larger number of people by talking about Hillary.

    Halo

    I disagree. I think that while Halo is a fun game, and it definitely has a great amount of appeal, there are a number of games with better graphics/story/audio etc... In my opinion, Halo has created a very engaging game, where the gameplay is fun and easy. The multiplayer experience is exciting and fast paced, but allows for simple strategy and planning as well. Personally, I prefer games like Call of Duty, but I still enjoy Halo, I just don't think it's the amazing game that all the hype seems to make it out to be.
  10. Well, I use FireFTP and that seems to work fine. Just make sure you're loading to the correct folder. I'm sortof lazy sometimes so I'm a fan of the drag and drop functionality.
  11. I live in the US, but I've traveled a bit so I know we have it pretty good over here as far as gas prices go. I have to do a fair amount of driving, but I personally think that gas prices going up is not necessarily a bad thing. While it cuts into my money for sure (broke college student), what I spend on gas doesn't come close to what I spend on food (hungry college student). Of course, I drive a tiny two seater that is supposed to get 40-50 mpg. We're sort of spoiled here in the US when it comes to gas prices, we don't pay nearly as much as people do in the UK for example. I was in England over Christmas, and even with the drop of the US dollar compared to the pound, they were still paying almost twice as much as I do at home.
  12. I am having the same problem. I tried at gamma.xisto.com/cpanel, I can see my site at gamma.xisto.com/~tcube/, but I still can't log in to my cpanel.
  13. The brand of the RAM shouldn't matter. Quite possibly it's some sort of incompatibility as others have said, that is worth checking. My suggestion would be to load Memtest86+ onto a cd and check to make sure your RAM isn't bad. If you bought cheap RAM (this is the only area where brand might come into play) it's a bit more likely to be defective. I was having a large amount of problems with an old computer, and when I found out my new 256mb RAM chip was defective and removed it the problems were fixed (sortof, the computer didn't run so well with only 128mb of RAM).
  14. Personally, I'd go for performance/speed upgrades well before I made my car look nice. Then again, I prefer the look of a car with a little bit of mud on it. In my opinion, cars are for being used, not for looking pretty.
  15. I disagree, I think the 360 has plenty to offer other than FPS's. On the other hand, if you want to play a lot of those the 360 has the best controller for them by far.You can get plenty of other games for the 360, even if they're not 360 specific. As you're not planning to get a PS3 I won't bother discussing it's merits.The Wii is definitely fun, and cheaper, but I've found that the games tend to be rather alike, and you don't get much in the way of epic/grandiose story telling or games. My personal preference would be a 360, and when you want to play Brawl just head over to a friend's house.
